Chapter 4 Strategy
In front of Shanhaiguan, 40,000 cavalry were silent, looking at their commander and leader, Yan Zhanshu.
"Soldiers, we are about to go to Xiangping, from now on, we will be the Liaodong Army!" Yan Zhanshu said, while remembering the big surprise that Yan Rou brought him when he came back - Wen has Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai, Wu Youdian Wei Dianzi Gao (Anyway, did anyone guess right?) - As soon as Guo Jia met, the first thing he said was: "Dare to ask the general's ambition?!" ”
"Ambition in the world!" This is Yan Zhanshu's answer without hesitation at that time, in the face of the top strategists of this era, any hesitation and concealment will cause irreparable consequences, but since Guo Jia has come to him, it means that at least he still has a good impression of himself, gamble!
"Guo Fengxiao and Xi Zhicai meet the lord!" Yan Zhanshu's honesty won him two powerful strategists again. After some conversation, although Guo Jia has tens of millions of soldiers in his chest and thousands of good policies, he does not like government affairs, and there is no problem for Xi Zhicai to govern a county. So, Yan Zhanshu appointed Guo Jia as the military advisor on the spot, and Xi Zhicai was the main book. Soon, the three guys who were good at wine teamed up to take away the imperial wine that Yan Zhanshu had just arrived.
On the banquet, after some talking, Guo Jia lay down on the couch, and Yan Zhanshu covered it with a fur fur.
Guo Jia said with a smile: "After breaking the Wuhuan battle, the lord's name is all over the world, but it is also slanderous all over the world, after four years of breaking the word Xianbei, there are few people who are willing to come to help, and there are many people waiting to see a good show, can the lord have a countermeasure?" ”
"There is no other way to defeat Xianbei with strength." Yan Zhanshu said very sincerely: "Please also teach me filial piety." ”
"Without him, there are only four strategies: correct name, recruitment, tuntian, and gathering people!" Guo Jia came up with the countermeasures one by one.
"Correct name - among the lord's subordinates, the Han army is only 3,000, but Wuhuan has 40,000, not only to make them believe that the lord is the legendary wolf lord, but also to spread the news throughout the desert, especially Fuyu and Goguryeo in the east, and Xianbei in the north. It is called the Liaodong Army, which is separate from the other Han armies, so that all the subordinates of the lord are proud of being a member of the Liaodong army, and let everyone under the lord know that the object of their allegiance is the lord, not the Son of Heaven who is far away in Luoyang! This is the second one. ”
Guo Jia said leisurely: "Otherwise, no matter whether the lord can sweep away Xianbei in four years, it is just a wedding dress for people, all the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooked!" Han Huaiyin, Zhou Xiliu, and Chen Zigong must not forget the past! ”
"Recruiting talents - there are less than ten generals under the command of the lord, and there are only three ministers, and this is just a matter of governing the sparsely populated Liaodong, if you want to sweep away Xianbei, and even turn Hu into Han and collect it for your own use, there are still too few talents!"
"Tuntian - the lord has a lot of soldiers and horses, but only relying on the pass to plunder, he definitely can't support so many soldiers and horses, and Youzhou Mu Liu Yu and the right general Gongsun Zan have a bad relationship with the lord, and it is impossible to supply a large amount of food to the lord's army, so the policy of Tuntian must be implemented. The family collected refugees for themselves, vassal servants, and civilians in order to pay the taxes of the Han family, it was rare to have food and clothing for a year, and it was impossible to provide food and grass for the generals. Guo Jia said lightly.
Hearing this, Xi Zhicai said very resentfully: "The family monopolizes knowledge and does not pass it on, and it also steals and cheats, hides the population, and does not pay taxes, which is really a big thief in the world!" ”
"The only way to do this is to collect refugees, manage them militarily together with the families of the soldiers, and collect fixed taxes to support the army."
"Gather people - if there is not enough population, there will not be enough supplementary soldiers, and there will not be enough talents to govern the place, then the territory laid by the lord is all desert, and it will not be able to provide any help to the lord at all, so that the strength of the lord will become weaker and weaker, and when the Xianbei is swept away, the lord's subordinates are afraid that they will also be killed and wounded! On the contrary, if there are enough talents to help govern, take charge of logistics, and the lord lays the ground in front, and there are people in the back to take care of it, and continuously provide soldiers with food and grass, and repair ordnance, then the lord's road to conquest can go more and more smoothly! ”
"In this world, where are there so many talents, and even if there are, how can they go to the desert grassland to suffer?" Yan Zhanshu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Nope! Lord, there really is! Xi Zhicai suddenly thought of something, and laughed and said: "The lord knows who has the most money and slaves in the world except for the family?" ”
"It's Haoqiang, a businessman!" Guo Jia also laughed and said: "It is difficult for strong and strong businessmen to be officials, but many of them are outstanding in martial arts, and there are also shrewd and capable people, who can be used by the lord." Lord, the general direction of your talent seeking talent has come out! ”
On the banquet, Yan Zhanshu told the general outline, Guo Jia polished and processed, and the drama Zhicai made a sway, and a sprinkled "Talent Seeking Order" was released while it was hot:
Xi Yizhi and Fu said that they were sluts, Guan Zhong, and Huan Gong thieves were all used for fun. Xiao He, Cao Shen, county officials, Han and Chen Ping bear the name of insult, have the shame of laughing, and can achieve the royal industry, and the reputation has been known for thousands of years. Wu Qi is greedy, self-confident in killing his wife, scattering money to seek officials, and his mother will not return, but in Wei, the Qin people dare not go east, and in Chu, the three Jin Dynasty dare not seek south!
And today, there are no people who have the utmost virtue in the people, and they are brave and brave to fight against the enemy; If the civil and vulgar officials are highly talented and heterogeneous; or can be a general, bear the name of humiliation, see the act of laughter, or be unkind and unfilial and have the art of governing the country and using soldiers: what they know, do not leave anything behind!
Today, there are champion Hou, General Anbei, and Liaodong are too strict, and they want to use Liaodong as a place, gather 100,000 elite soldiers, and take four years to break through the Danhan Mountain, Jing Dahan and provoke, and hope that talented people from all over the world will enthusiastically help!
Looking at this article, Yan Zhanshu couldn't help reciting the word: Yilu has two declining people, and he has gone through poverty, one is a fishing and one is a cultivator. If you don't meet back then, you will be a hero when you are old.
"I've been through poverty." Xi Zhicai muttered and chewed, feeling that it was really a true portrayal of himself, if he still stayed in Yingchuan Academy, he was afraid that he would end up as an "old hero".
Guo Jia read this word a few times, and suddenly smiled: "The poem, although it is not similar to today's text, it also has a unique charm - just read it carefully, it should be unfinished, I wonder if we will be lucky enough to listen to it?" ”
Looking at the several people in the hall, all of whom were his cronies, Yan Zhanshu continued the great cause of copying the public: "Tang Wu met occasionally, the wind and the tiger and the dragon, and the king of Xing was only laughing and talking." Until now, thousands of years later, who is competing for merit. ”
"The second half of this poem is too heavy," Yan Rou savored, "The words of the lord must not be passed on at this time!" ”
"What Zihe said is very true, only the upper part can be transmitted, but there is no lower part, and the taste is average, and it is better not to pass it on." Guo Jia nodded in agreement.
"Zihe, send someone to spread the recruitment order to the world!" Yan Zhanshu said to Yan Judo.
"No!" Yan Rou went to arrange for people to do things.
Yan Zhanshu gathered troops outside the pass and prepared to go to Xiangping, Liaodong, where he and Yan Rou jointly chose the base area!
"Liaodong Army, Wansheng-" Yan Liang was the first to shout. The generals also shouted, and then the 40,000 iron horsemen shouted in unison: "Liaodong Army, Wansheng-" The sound wave rose into the sky, smashing the floating clouds in the sky!
"Yuan Jian, I will go to Liaodong, at least three or four years, at most five or six years, and I will hand it over to you here!" Yan Zhanshu entrusted: "Shanhaiguan is the throat of our Liaodong Army entering Youzhou and even Hebei and the Central Plains in the future, and there must be no loss!" Do you know what's going on?! ”
"The last general knows his responsibility!" Liao Hua said abruptly: "Don't worry, the last general is still the same sentence, people are in the lock, and people are still in the pass!" ”
"I will leave you the 3,000 county soldiers recruited and trained by Gaoran, plus your original old department, you must guard Shanhaiguan." Yan Zhanshu suddenly lowered his voice: "You look for a chance to contact the white rabbit in Taihang Mountain, I am going to Liaodong, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, there is no one to supervise, and there is still an urgent need for help, Zhang Yan and they can all come back!" Taihang Mountain only needs to leave hundreds of people to guard the cottage. ”
"Good!" When Liao Hua heard this, his expression couldn't help but get excited, really speaking, he and Zhang Yan, Yu Yigen, Guo Damu, Wei Baitu, Yang Feng and others who went north to Taihang were the same faction, which was the veteran faction when Yan Zhanshu raised the army, like Han Dang, Gao Lan, Yan Liang, Zhao Yun and others were considered to be a general, and Yan Rou, Guo Jia and others could only be regarded as later manpower.
